A cravat’s knot creates the perfect
loop hole, the ring for the yacht’s sail,
the hundred fifty thousand dollar
engagement ring loops through the
finger nicely. Such holes surround
wealthy rings. Loop the loop
fill it with loot.
.
Define rich. What can be deducted
each year, the ceiling hovering
above the amount taxable, the cost
of shoes and tuxedos purchased
for corporate functions?
.
What is the real price for paying
high bonuses to corporate CEO’s?
The cost of doing business
with emerging states, like China
who robbed the world of manufacturing
anything pollution worthy? Do you know
what is in your Swiss wallet?
.
How much and who is sitting off shore?
How many dollars are invested
in gold and rare earth? How about
passing legislation stating every dollar
ever earned over one billion must be
returned to the government for reinvestment
in infrastructure and efucation.
Who needs a billion dollars?
.
Trillionaires get a bad rep, but they can
afford security to keep the wolves
away and the press friendly. One hundred
percent deduction on any charitable
contribution for the uber wealthy
should do the trick, a new loop hole
to push dollars through that will actually
help get wealth to the nation’s unemployed.
.
Love those napkin holders beside gilded
plates made in one time Yugoslavia. The
cloth folded perfectly to fit the circular space
All those zeros on checks and bank drafts.
Then there is the crochet loop and grasp
and pull that creates a security blanket
no matter what Congress decides or
fails to decide.

Lady A For President!!!
I'd vote for you! This is awesome!
Allets For President?
You make me smile. The country is topsy turvy but seriously, people are losing hope. The poet's charge is to elevate but also to bring issues to the forefront - to speak of our times clearly. We need to work - we need to redefine work as not being dependent on someone else to create wealth. Ancient Chinese Curse: May you live in interesting times ~~A~~
Clever little piece I like
